BEFORE USING THE APPLIANCE
Installing and operating your fridge
Before starting to use your fridge, you should pay attention to the
following points:
• The operating voltage for your fridge is 220-240 V at 50Hz.
• We do not accept responsibility for any damages that occur
due to ungrounded usage.
• Place your fridge where it will not be exposed to direct sunlight.
• Your appliance should be at least 50 cm away from stoves,
gas ovens and heater cores, and at least 5 cm away from
electrical ovens.
• Your fridge should never be used outdoors or exposed to rain.
• When your fridge is placed next to a deep freezer, there
should be at least 2 cm between them to prevent humidity
forming on the outer surface.
• Do not place anything on your fridge, and install your fridge
in a suitable place so that at least 15 cm of free space is
available above it.
• Use the adjustable front legs to make sure your appliance is
level and stable. You can adjust the legs by turning them in
either direction. This should be done before placing food in
the fridge.
• Before using your fridge, wipe all parts with a
solution of warm water and a teaspoon of sodium
bicarbonate, then rinse with clean water and dry.
Place all parts in the fridge after cleaning.
If your refrigerator has a fan condenser:
The condenser of your fridge is placed at the bottom of cabinet. As a
result of that, ttings which control the distance between the refrigerator
and the back wall at where you place the fridge, exist at the cover of
the bottom of cabinet. You can move the fridge towards the back wall
until that point.
Plastic for distance setting

EN
8BEFORE USING THE APPLIANCE
If your fridge doesn’t have a fan condenser, in other words,
the rear of your fridge looks like the one below:
• Install the plastic distance
guide (the part with black
vanes at the rear) by turning it
90° (as shown in the gure) to
prevent the condenser from
touching the wall.
• The refrigerator should be
placed against a wall with a
free space not exceeding 75
mm.
Before Using your Fridge
• When using your fridge for the rst time, or after transportation,
keep it in an upright position for at least 3 hours before plugging
into the mains. This allows efcient operation and prevents damage
to the compressor.
• Your fridge may have a smell when it is operated for the rst time.
This is normal and the smell will fade away when your fridge starts
to cool.

THE VARIOUS FUNCTION AND POSSIBILITIES
Information about New Generation Cooling
Technology
Fridges with new generation cooling technology have a
different working system than static fridges. Other fridges
may experience ice build up in the freezer compartment due
to door openings and humidity in the food. In such fridges
regular defrosting is required; the fridge has to be periodically
turned off, the frozen food moved to a suitable container
and the ice which has formed in the freezer compartment
removed.
In fridges with new generation cooling technology, dry cold air
is pumped evenly into the fridge and freezer compartments
using a fan. The cold air cools your food evenly and uniformly,
preventing humidity and ice build up.
In the refrigerator compartment, air blown by the fan located
at the top of refrigerator compartment is cooled while passing
through the gap behind the air duct. At the same time, the air
is blown out through the holes in the air duct evenly spreading
cool air throughout the refrigerator compartment.
As there is no air passage between the freezer and refrigerator
compartments there will be no odor mixing.
As a result of this, your fridge with new generation cooling
technology gives you ease of use as well as huge volume
and aesthetic appearance.

EN
12 THE VARIOUS FUNCTION AND POSSIBILITIES
Thermostat Setting
The freezer and refrigerator thermostat automatically regulates the inside
temperature of the compartments. By rotating the knob from position 1 to 5, colder
temperatures can be obtained. In cold seasons you can set lower thermostat
positions in order to decrease the energy consumption.
Thermostat level;
1 – 2 : For short-term storage of food in the freezer compartment, you can
set the knob between minimum and medium position.
3 – 4 : For long-term storage of food in the freezer compartment, you can set
knob to the medium position.
5 – MAX : For freezing the fresh food. The appliance will work longer. Once the
food is fully frozen reset the thermostat to its original position.
Warnings about
Temperature Adjustments
• Temperature adjustments
should be made according to
the frequency of door openings
and the quantity of food kept
inside the fridge.
• This fridge is designed to work
in all ambient temperatures. In
ambient temperatures colder
than -5oC, we do not recommend
preserving food in the refrigerator
compartment because the food
that you put into the refrigerator
compartment will have a
temperature close to the ambient
temperature. Consequently, they
will freeze. You can keep your
foods until -5oC in refrigerator
compartments. Food can
be preserved in the freezer
compartment, colder than -5 oC
ambient temperature.

EN
13
THE VARIOUS FUNCTION AND POSSIBILITIES
• Do not start another adjustment before completing one adjustment.
• When you rst switch on the appliance, allow it to operate for 24 hours
continuously to cool down to the correct temperature. During this initial 24
hour period do not open the door or place a lot of food inside the appliance.
• If the appliance is switched off or unplugged, wait at least 5 minutes before
plugging the appliance in or restarting it in order not to damage the compressor.
• Your fridge is designed to operate within
specic ambient temperature ranges,
according to the climate class stated
on the information label. We do not
recommend operating your fridge outside
the stated temperatures value limits.
Note:
This appliance is designed to work at 43 oC ambient temperature with no problems.
Below -5 oC ambient temperature, do not use the refrigerator compartment as
the foods that you put into there will freeze. You can continue using the freezer
compartment.
• This appliance is designed for use at an ambient temperature within the
10°C - 43°C range.
Climate class Ambient (oC)
T16 to 43 (oC)
ST 16 to 32 (oC)
N16 to 32 (oC)
SN 10 to 32 (oC)
Accessories
Icematic
• Take out the ice making tray
• Fill the water to the line.
• Place the ice making tray in its original
position
• When ice cubes are formed, twist the lever
to drop ice cubes into the icebox.
Note:
• Do not ll the icebox with water to make ice. This may damage it.
• The movement of the ice maker may be difcult while the refrigerator is running. In such
a case it should be cleaned by removing the glass shelves.
Removing the Ice maker
• Remove the freezer glass shelves
• Remove the icemaker by pulling left or
right on the shelf.
You can remove the icemaker to increase the
available volume in the freezer compartment.

EN
14 THE VARIOUS FUNCTION AND POSSIBILITIES
Chiller Shelf
Keeping food in the Chiller compartment
instead of the freezer or refrigerator
compartment allows food to retain freshness
and avour longer, while preserving its fresh
appearance. When the chiller tray becomes
dirty, remove it and wash it with water.
(Water freezes at 0°C, but foods containing
salt or sugar freeze at temperatures lower
than that)
Normally the chiller compartment is used to
store raw sh, lightly pickled food, rice, etc...
Do not put foods you want to freeze or ice trays onto the chiller shelf.
Removing the Chiller shelf
• Pull the chiller shelf towards you by
sliding it on the rails.
• Pull the chiller shelf up from the rail and
remove it from the fridge.
After the chiller shelf is removed, up to 20kg
of food can be placed in the fridge.
Visual and text descriptions on the accessories section may
vary according to the model of your appliance.
Fresh dial
When the humidity controller is in the closed position, it allows fresh fruit and
vegetables to be stored for longer.
If the crisper is completely full, open the fresh dial located in front of the crisper.
This allows the air in the crisper and humidity rate to be controlled and the storage
life of the food in the crisper will be increased.
If you see any condensation on the glass shelf, the humidity control should be set
in the open position.

EN
15
ARRANGING FOOD IN THE APPLIANCE
It will be enough to set the thermostat to “2 or 3”, for fridge to work in normal
working conditions.
Refrigerator Compartment
• To reduce humidity and consequent increase of frost never place liquids in
unsealed containers in the refrigerator.
• Never place warm food in the refrigerator. Warm food should be allowed to
cool at room temperature and arranged to ensure adequate air circulation in
the refrigerator compartment.
• Arrange meat and cleaned sh (wrapped in packages or sheets of plastic)
and use them within 1-2 days.
• You can put the fruits and vegetables into the crisper without any packaging.
Important Note:
• Cover any cooked dishes when you put them in the fridge. Place them in
the fridge when they are cool, otherwise temperature/humidity inside the
fridge increases which causes the fridge to work harder. Covering food and
beverages also preserves their avour and aroma.
• Potatoes, onion and garlic
should not be kept in the
fridge.
• Make sure food does not touch
the temperature sensor which
is located in the refrigerator
compartment. To keep an
optimum temperature in the
refrigerator compartment,
make sure food doesn’t make
contact with the sensor.

16 ARRANGING FOOD IN THE APPLIANCE
Freezer Compartment
• The freezer compartment is used for freezing fresh food, for storing frozen
foods for the period of time indicated on packaging and for making ice cubes.
• Do not put fresh and warm foods in the freezer door shelves to be frozen. Only
use the door shelves for storing frozen foods.
• Do not put fresh and warm food next to frozen food as it can thaw the frozen
food.
• Use the fast freezing shelf to freeze home cooking (and any other food which
needs to be frozen quickly) more quickly because of the freezing shelf’s greater
freezing power.
• While freezing fresh foods (i.e. meat, sh and mincemeat) divide them in por-
tions you will use in a single serving.
• While freezing fresh foods, the maximum amount of fresh food (in kg) that can
be frozen in 24 hours is indicated on the appliance label.
• For optimum appliance performance to reach maximum freezing capacity, turn
the thermostat knob to the coldest setting 24 hours before placing fresh food
into the freezer.
• After placing fresh food into the freezer, having the thermostat knob set to
the coldest setting for 24 hours is generally sufcient. After 24 hours, you can
reduce the thermostat knob setting if required.
• Attention. To save energy, if you are only freezing small amounts of food, you
do not need to set the thermostat knob to the coldest setting.
• For storing frozen foods, the instructions shown on frozen food packages should
always be followed carefully. If no information is provided, food should not be
stored for more than 3 months from the purchased date.
• When buying frozen food ensure that these have been frozen at suitable tem-
peratures and that the packing is intact.
• Frozen food should be transported in appropriate containers to maintain the
quality of the food and should be returned to the freezing surfaces of the unit
in the shortest possible time.
• If a package of frozen food shows the sign of humidity and abnormal swelling
it is probable that it has been previously stored at an unsuitable temperature
and that the contents have deteriorated.
• The storage life of frozen foods depends on the room temperature, thermostat
setting, how often the door is opened, the type of food and the length of time
required to transport the product from the shop to your home. Always follow
the instructions printed on the packaging and never exceed the maximum
storage life indicated.

EN
17
ARRANGING FOOD IN THE APPLIANCE
If the lower shelf in the freezer door is removed and food is allowed to
block the air suction hole, this will reduce the effectiveness of the fridge.
Therefore, be careful while loading the freezer compartment and make
sure not to cover the air suction hole.
Air suction hole
In some models: while loading the freezing compartment, do not load
above the the loading lines otherwise the door may not close correctly.
If the freezer compartment door does not close correctly, excess ice
may form in the freezer compartment. To prevent the problem recur-
ring, clear the ice and make sure that the door is fully closed.
Also, not closing the freezer and/or fridge compartment doors would
increase your energy consumption.

EN
18 CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
• Unplug the fridge before starting to clean it.
• Do not wash your fridge by pouring water into it.
• Wipe the inner and outer sides with a soft cloth or a
sponge using warm and soapy water.
• Remove the parts individually and clean with
soapy water. Do not wash in a dishwasher.
• Never use ammable, explosive or corrosive material,
such as thinner, gas or acid for cleaning.
• You should clean the condenser with a brush at least
once a year. This will help your freezer to operate more
efciently and will enable you to save energy.
Make sure that your fridge is unplugged while cleaning.
